Thanks Kevin. Actually the decals are from my stash. 🙂 I didn't want to use the old ones as they don't look very "useable".

🙂

Here ya go Fran. 1/48 it is. I don't remember whether it's plastic or resin but I THINK it's resin.

Thanks. I remember it as being resin and 1/48 Fran. I'll do some checking to be sure, etc.

I built this model several years ago and I enjoyed the build. I thought I'd post a couple of photos here for you guys. It's a 1/48 resin kit by (I think) MiniArt. I'm considering getting another one to go with it. 😃

Thanks Dennis. I don't think it turned out as well as I'd hoped due to the OD overspray on the top sides. I may go back and do some remedial painting in a bit. I'm glad you like it though. 🙂

All done with this oldie.

Thanks Vince!! 🙂

Time for some decaling. 😃

Thank you! The Tamiya 10mm masking tape is just about the right size for them which makes it a lot easier.🙂

Thanks Kevin! 🙂

Thanks Dennis. I'm getting ready to start decaling but I'll have to come up with enough "U's" of the correct size, etc. I'll probably have to make them on my computer. 🤪

Painting coming along well so far. I'm not real sure I like the Medium Green but I figure it'll look alright after decaling and over spraying with clear flat. Fingers crossed. 🙂

Here's the a/c I'm building. A little out of the usual. 🙂

I'm short on space too Kevin. I've been putting some of them away in boxes. At least it keeps them from getting dusty!

Painting under way. Invasion stripes with Tamiya and undersides with Xtracolor. Uppers will also be Xtracolor. 🙂

Agreed, thanks.

Coming along. A fair amount of sanding and puttying is needed.

Thank you! 🙂

I figured the time was right to get back on this one. It's been sitting partially done for quite a while. 🙂

I've stayed holed up in my house since Saturday trying to stay warm. Good "model building" weather and fortunately the power has stayed on. I was really sweating that out! The low last night was supposed to be 10 degrees but it's warming up to the 40's this afternoon. I've built 2 Skyraiders, both ZM, and they turned out nice.

I've had this kit for a good while and have worked on it some from time to time. I decided to re-start it and hopefully finish the build this time. It's a good kit even with the raised panel lines.

The main problems so far were nearly everything on the engine. Lots of fitting and re-fitting and never getting anything, especially the exhausts, to fit. The cockpit, etc was ok. I didn't want to keep fighting the engine assembly so it was to the SOD. Kids love snow for sure.

I'll be glad when it's all gone Kevin! LOL I may get back on the Skyraider at some point but for now it'll stay on the SOD.
